The quaternion (4-dimensional) Mandelbrot set is simply a solid of revolution of the 2-dimensional Mandelbrot set (in the j-k plane), and is therefore uninteresting to look at. [43] Taking a 3-dimensional cross section at d = 0 ( q = a + b i + c j + d k ) {\displaystyle d=0\ (q=a+bi+cj+dk)} results in a solid of revolution of the 2-dimensional ...
Benoit B. Mandelbrot [a] [b] (20 November 1924 – 14 October 2010) was a Polish-born French-American mathematician and polymath with broad interests in the practical sciences, especially regarding what he labeled as "the art of roughness" of physical phenomena and "the uncontrolled element in life".

Without doubt, the most famous connectedness locus is the Mandelbrot set, which arises from the family of complex quadratic polynomials : f c ( z ) = z 2 + c {\displaystyle f_{c}(z)=z^{2}+c\,} The connectedness loci of the higher-degree unicritical families,
John Hamal Hubbard (born October 6 or 7, 1945) is an American mathematician and professor at Cornell University and the Université de Provence.He is known for the mathematical contributions he made with Adrien Douady in the field of complex dynamics, including a study of the Mandelbrot set.
Starting in the 1950s Benoit Mandelbrot and others have studied self-similarity of fractal curves, and have applied theory of fractals to modelling natural phenomena.Self-similarity occurs, and analysis of these patterns has found fractal curves in such diverse fields as economics, fluid mechanics, geomorphology, human physiology and linguistics.
Chaos: Making a New Science was the first popular book about chaos theory. It describes the Mandelbrot set, Julia sets, and Lorenz attractors without using complicated mathematics.
Mandelbrot may refer to: Benoit Mandelbrot (1924–2010), a mathematician associated with fractal geometry Mandelbrot set , a fractal popularized by Benoit Mandelbrot
